[17:58] Hi
[17:59] met!
[17:59] Hi Bvowk
[18:01] whats up?
[18:03] Just been playing with a new combo on nano
[18:03] Digital Warlord
[18:06] and?
[18:06] Nice second place
[18:06] And I like it ;-) for obvious reasons
[18:06] Hmmm... points to ftrttt?
[18:06] damn!
[18:06] I'm down to 9 warriors
[18:07] and you're in second ;)
[18:07] ftrttt EQU ftrttr
[18:07] and you're up to 11 warriors..
[18:07] hrm.
[18:07] I don't think I approve!
[18:07] I didn't think many of your warriors would last long ;-)
[18:08] Hehe, my new idea is that having one or two warriors is probably better then evolving a good warrior and submitting 4/5 variations of it
[18:09] Then the challenges will soon find a weak spot and gain a lot of points against you, and if you only have one warrior with that weak spot you can't abuse it as good
[18:09] So you stay alive longer (?)
[18:10] Three of your warriors begin with 8c09fc1a
[18:10] yeah
[18:10] they've got the same form
[18:10] different mods and oprands tho
[18:11] Don't say too much, else it would be too easy to decompile them and use them in a evolver ;-)
[18:11] Has fluffy given any clues about Red Moon's form?
[18:12] roy: didn't you read how to tell the exact contents of my warriors from the names?
[18:13] Well, I only saw you mentioning the hashcode once
[18:13] imp paper -> pimp rape
[18:17] bvowk: did you see the big round robin results?
[18:18] Well, not as big as 50,000
[18:19] no..
[18:20] http://corewar.co.uk/temp/results.txt
[18:20] infinano plus approx 160 unpublished nano warriors
[18:24] cool!

[19:30] Hello everyone!
[19:30] hey
[19:31] Hi Gnik :-)
[19:31] Some of your anagrams have been solved :-P
[19:32] hrm.
[19:32] I intentionally picked short ones :)
[19:33] :-)
[19:33] I gave up sending papers to sal now
[19:35] I don't find any good variants, so (as you noticed ;) I'm now giving oneshots and scanners a try
[19:36] :-)
[19:36] no new ideas tho, mainly stuff from nw #1
[19:36] gnik: nanoWarrior 2 will hopefully give you some new ideas
[19:37] I'm really looking forward to reading it :)
[19:38] Maybe I will contribute some (new) ideas to nanoWarrior #3!
[19:38] I hope so
[19:39] I just don't want to publish my only self written warrior that stays on the hill ;)
[19:39] otherwise it would've been in nw #2 ...
[19:40] Actually I don't think most of the stuff which will be in nw2 ought to be published!
[19:40] I think Neo, sf and I should keep it all secret :-)
[19:41] w00t
[19:43] nah, i want to further elaborate some ideas first -> nw#3 :)
[19:44] So what is the secret of the Red Moon ?
[19:44] No idea
[19:44] What's the secret of impossible?
[19:44] :-P
[19:47] its impossible to say
[19:48] That is to reveal in future times and impossible to tell by now!
[19:50] Any clue what Petro "I'm Old" Warrior [03]
[19:50] and Foggy Maus (beta)
[19:50] are ?
[19:51] No :-(
[19:51] They both seem to remain forever at the top of the hill
[19:51] Nothing seems to beat Petro apart from Impossible
[19:52] And I've checked back through hundreds of warriors which are no longer on the hill
[19:53] (metcalf does his corewars homework!)
[19:53] :-)
[19:54] I really wonder why it is impossible to beat all warriors, damn ...
[19:56] MSG:
[19:57] Join: Fluffy joined #corewars
[19:57] :)
[19:57] Hi Fluffy
[19:57] hi fluffer
[19:57] hi fluffy
[19:57] * Fluffy reduces bvowk's oxygen supply to zero
[19:57] * Fluffy chops bvowk's dead body into tiny bits
[19:58] * Fluffy lets the tiny bits rot till doomsday
[19:58] ha ha! foolish human I run on computrons!
[19:58] Hi John, gnik :)
[19:58] bvowk: You should ask yourself, who is nano-koth and then be a little bit more silent ;-)
[19:59] John: It seems that you have much work to do for updating the nano-HoF :)
[19:59] Mentioning doomsday, it's now 5 minutes to midnight
[20:00] I kept watching the moon for some time now, but it doesn't seem to set ;)
[20:00] Fluffy: yeah, it gets out of date really quickly!
[20:00] john: where?
[20:00] http://www.thebulletin.org/
[20:00] I've been thinking maybe nano hof should be 250 or 500 ;)
[20:00] gnik: Yes, but I like watching the moon. That's why the strategy line :)
[20:01] gnik: But I'll soon change the naming scheme for my warriors ... again :)
[20:02] fluffy: the moon needs to set, as it must rise again
[20:02] John: http://qntm.org/destroy
[20:02] Nanohof used to be an entry level of 50!
[20:02] John: That's far more fun
[20:02] John: I hope that you use some kind of script to update the nano-hof.
[20:03] Here's an old one - http://corewar.co.uk/old/nanohof.txt
[20:03] No, no script
[20:03] It doesn't take long though
[20:03] Fluffy: nice work btw (whatever it is)!
[20:03] As long as you tell bvowk that I'm higher in the nano-hof than he's I'm satisfied
[20:04] gnik: Red Moon?
[20:04] Fluffy: yes!
[20:04] gnik: Pure chance. My tiny generator did all the work.
[20:05] What happened to "The MicroGP Corewars Collective" ?
[20:05] No idea, maybe they are working now on an evolved 94nop-warrior :)
[20:06] Fluffy: Does the code make sense to you ?
[20:06] what do you mean?
[20:07] Fluffy: Do you know why you're #1 :)
[20:07] Fluffy: Or is it just fame you're interested in ;)
[20:07] I think, that's hard to tell. I've probably hit a sweet spot. Nothing more
[20:08] But apart from that there is nothing unusual about this warrior.
[20:08] It is a simple mov/spl/mov/mov/djn
[20:09] i.e. quickbombing into mad bomber ;)
[20:09] I will never understand the nano hill!
[20:09] What exactly do you want to understand?
[20:10] Why it is not like scissors/stone/paper
[20:11] 5 lines is too small to write a good scissors, paper or stone
[20:11] Maybe because (for instance) papers don't have enough time to spread before the time is up?
[20:11] at least normal papers
[20:11] So we have to write the best we can and make some compromises
[20:12] And I think that tiny/94nop are like nano, but we all (including) bvowk lack the computing power to generate such hightly sophisticated warriors like for nano.
[20:13] mhmm I have to think about that and am sorry about having to leave...
[20:14] But I still fear the day that bvowk seriously starts to evolve for 94nop (again)
[20:14] gnik: No problem
[20:14] * Fluffy waves to gnik
[20:14] * bvowk doesn't understand the nano hill.. he just keeps throwing stuff until something sticks to the hill
[20:14] * John waves
[20:15] * bvowk waves
[20:15] yeah, that is the right attitude, bvowk!
[20:15] I'm very tempted to become a lunar lunatic, too! Watch out ;)
[20:15] :)
[20:15] MSG: Quit: I was using TinyIRC! Visit http://www.tinyirc.net/ for more information.
[20:16] hey, I don't like your latest entry met
[20:17] although fluffy isn't nanokoth anymore
[20:18] :-)
[20:19] hrm
[20:20] John: If I remember correctly I've already used the name "Blue Moon" for nano :)
[20:20] But it didn't get on :-P
[20:20] So it's still available
[20:20] My next warrior is going to be called Distant Moon
[20:21] * Fluffy kicks John
[20:21] LOOK AT THE HILL
[20:21] Oh, you've made one called that
[20:22] :)
[20:22] Well it's not on yet, so the name's still available :-P
[20:22] "Forgotten Moon" is already taken :)
[20:23] I've sent some warriors which haven't appeared on the hill
[20:23] yes, same for me :(
[20:24] So the email will probably arrive at SAL sometime over the next 6 months
[20:24] :(
[20:24] That's one of bvowk's off!
[20:24] ... and the queue is empty
[20:26] bvowk: SAL! NOT! WORK! DO! SOMETHING!
[20:26] * Fluffy angry
[20:27] * John encourages Fluffy
[20:27] * John cheers as Fluffy yells at bvowk!
[20:27] Fortunately I'm not the Hulk ;-)
[20:29] We killed SAL!
[20:29] eh?
[20:29] Now it seems to work again ...
[20:30] Another of bvowk's warriors off!
[20:30] heh
[20:30] Good work, John!
[20:30] * bvowk beats fluffy with a stick
[20:31] Hmmm... stick is the equivalent of spl mov djn attack
[20:31] are you sure its not the classical spl mov mov djn?
[20:31] bvowk: I'll ignore your attacks as long as I'm higher in the nano-hof than you!
[20:32] * John prepares mov sne add mov djn
[20:32] Go on, Trypanosoma brucei seems to like them :)
[20:32] "The server at sal.math.ualberta.ca is taking too long to respond."
[20:33] yup
[20:33] And I still haven't seen my "Lost Moon" on nano :(
[20:33] hrm.
[20:33] can you view the page?
[20:34] at this moment: no
[20:34] hrm.
[20:34] I wonder.
[20:34] Maybe Canada's "see cables" have been cut by a killer whale
[20:35] ... or they've reverted to send IP packets by dove
[20:36] If you put a dove into a rail gun, you might get a decent speed ;-)
[20:36] I should patent that!
[20:37] Any more submissions for nano before I grab the ages to update the HoF?
[20:37] hrm.
[20:37] I can't see anything wrong.. I'll look again shortly.
[20:37] Maybe it isn't the sal-server but its internet connection
[20:37] hmm ... now I can connect again without problems
[20:39] Bvowk: can't you see anything wrong?
[20:40] Now I can't connect to sal again :(
[20:41] Join: Altair joined #corewars
[20:41] But I can ping SAL without problems from here
[20:41] Hi Altair
[20:41] Bvowk: http://img120.imageshack.us/img120/1375/probwd1.jpg
[20:42] Is that enough info to fix it? :-P
[20:44] bvowk: No I can connect just fine to SAL
[20:45] MSG: Ping timeout: 255 seconds
[20:45] * John can't
[20:46] yup, now I can't, too
[20:46] Dove flew too far east
[20:46] Hmm ... but do they have rail guns in Canada?
[20:46] ;-)
[20:46] If so, the dove(s) probably have met a wall or sth.
[20:48] Now I can't connect to tantrix.com - it's spreading :-(
[20:48] Skynet has started to take over the world ;)
[20:48] Join: Altair joined #corewars
[20:49] Hi again, Altair :)
[20:53] John: I'll wait till tomorrow and see if my warriors appear on SAL.
[20:53] I think I'll do the same
[20:53] I think 2 or 3 went missing
[20:53] MSG: Ping timeout: 255 seconds
[20:54] yes, 2 of mine are missing, too
[20:54] I'll update the nanohof a different day
[20:55] ok, but thanks for doing the HoF
[20:55] I always forget about that. It is nice to have it :)
[20:55] It's no trouble :-)
[20:56] I need to fill out a few of the missing strategies actually
[20:56] And I've been thinking about moving the columns so the full warrior name fits it
[20:56] yes, that would be a nice idea
[20:57] I just used the same column spacing as all the HoF in the past have been
[20:57] Why not add a new column for the age of the warrior (i.e. when it was pushed off)
[20:57] * Fluffy wants to keep John occupied with the HoF ;-)
[20:57] Erm...
[20:58] Do you mean age in days or something
[20:58] No, the date when they've been pushed off the hill
[20:58] Oh, the date it left the hill
[20:58] like "Wed Jan 17 20:58:26 UTC 2007" or sth.
[20:58] Yay, SAL's back up!
[20:58] but how long
[20:59] Not use that'd fit
[20:59] Down again!
